List with novels i want to read

Sleep what sleep QAQ

Most of these will be BL but a few are not 

i got so bored cause i couldn't find any more well known wuxia novels that interests me anymore so i'm making this list to sort... more>> out some of the lesser known novels that interests me to read. keep in mind i haven't read any of these novels yet and i might never read some of them i'm only throwing them on this list because something piques my curiosity. if i read any of these i will leave a comment on it and maybe write a review. (and fyi i did sort out these with a certain criteria, which were novels were martial arts genre had cultivation and excluded harems)  <<less

Looking at the MCs from a psychological point of view. Simply enjoyable reads with an MC who has a sickly/messed up mind.... more>>

Or just an interesting philosophy. <<less

These are some of the best novels I've read thus far. Usually, the MC is calm, very smart with no hero complex. No Harem, No Slice of Life, and Most likely no romance, and if there is, just know that the story is still awesome :)... more>>

That being said, keep in mind that some of these novels may not necessarily follow the above pattern. (For example some may include harem.)

I'll add description to novels later <<less

A list of novels where people are summoned to unique spaces separate from the real world and have to complete tasks, generally stuff like puzzles, survival or horror games.... more>>

List is in no particular order. <<less

This is not in order...

I will only include the one's that made me stick through thick and thin. Mostly no romance, if it's harem then you should expect that the MC is just using them for greater benefits. I don't like DUmb characters so you should also expect that most of the Male leads here or Female leads are smart or sharp. half of my list also include survival and teaches you some bitter reality lesson unlike those cliche novels that makes you scared or dream about nonsense fantasy stuffs.... more>>

I JUST RANDOMLY PLACE THE NOVELS AND I WON'T RANK IT. ( for me, they're all the best on their own way and techniques) 

[disclaimer: as I said, ‘mostly’ no romance- what I meant is in the survival stories, and if the protagonist is a man. But if the protagonist is a girl, they’ll be really romance. Book like that (top tier books with Female Mc w/ no romance) are very rare. I myself having some troubles finding them.] <<less

good novels i recommend it

Common POints-MC with : [ Or ] < System > < Unique Power > < Cold and Calm Character > < Rebirth > < Apocalypse > < Comedy > < Fan-fiction > < Solo > < Cheat > < Killer >.... more>>

I like novels in which upper mentioned things are there (anyone). But, MC should not share his powers with others and form an Adventure Party or so. Reality doesn't work like that.

I don't want MC to share his unique cheat or system power with others.

[ Just think if everyone can become iron man, then MC is no longer unique but instead too common. And in a fantasy world if you are not unique then do you think one day you can become strongest or God or something. Then no. Giving my system to others. WTF? Why not become a side character instead and help MC to become strong ( like a stepping stone ).]

MC who are high over heels behind girls, I don't like.

If MC is not unique, then alright. But, he should at least have a strong mentality or great ambition. Not like I want to live a happy life but instead, I want to become strongest, WHY? Go ask Goku why? No need to have a reason for this, right.

It's like why you want to be rich?

I don't like MC who is too kind and childish and author show it as it is best and noble and good.

Even many RAWS link is also here which are on-site such as [ Uukanshu ] a Chinese site. <<less

Evil and Ruthless Male Protagonists... more>>

More info on what i am searching: (The title may not be entirely accurate.)

Evil mc ( someone who do not care about other people, and can do anything for his goals )

Ruthless mc ( someone who do not hesitate to kill )

Neutral mc ( Neither a good person, nor a bad person, But care more about his own profits, Rational-Pragmatic type of route )

No Romance ( For this one, i also mean, less romance or none maybe, as well. No romance and no female lead are different. )

No Heroine ( i will use this word for those novels where there is no female lead. ) This is a word you find usually in mtl.

Sharing a Discord Invite Code, For Evil mc novels, But only MTL. Discord invite: ywyGwvK5ns. 

P.S: My reviews might be rough sometimes, but they're my honest thoughts. I wouldn't share a novel in here if I didn't think there was something worthwhile. Use them as a guide and decide for yourself. Treat each novel like a Poison Test. Enjoy your reading! <<less

No description.

In this list, there will be a variety of novels that I have read throughout my journey. There are also some novels that I'm planning to read as well. Nevertheless for the ones I have read, I will try add some descriptions. ( may not have enough time, but I'll try my best). I've read about 90% of what is included in this list, so it'll take quite long to review all of them ( I would rather spend time reading novels). ... more>>

Unfortunately, there's a limit to the number of novels I can add to this list. That's why I may trim down the list so I can add other novels.  <<less
